Audio Systems

From a straightforward system design with one speaker through to configurations involving many speakers, digital PA provides an easy to use audio system with leading edge technology that is effortlessly customised and completely networkable.

Basic digital PA systems can be configured for many different settings and are suitable for corporate offices, retail outlets, pubs, clubs, churches, schools and more.

Features:

Individual volume control

Web, mobile and tablet control

Easily configurable and scalable

Highly intuitive for users

Source selectors

Multiple inputs and sources

Products Include:

Network Amplifier Modules (NAM)
Network Amplifier Modules (NAM) can be installed in the field near the location of the speakers. Each NAM has 4 x 12 Watt RMS class D amplifier channels, an Ethernet switch and built in DSP (EQ, FIR, delay and gain). Indoor and outdoor (IP66) versions are available. Each amplifier has an individual Dante input allowing for simple zoning and future changes.

Dante Input / Output (DIO)
The DIO offers an impressive range of tools and converters. It boasts a 2 port Ethernet switch (1x 1Gb Copper and 1x SFP cage), Dante audio, AES Input and Output, Mic Input, Line Input, Line Output, Headphone Output with external volume control and 2 x GPIO. The DIO is powered by PoE (Power over Ethernet) or runs via an external PSU. Redundancy is provided between both power sources.

Zone Controller – The Dante™ Source Selector
Zone Controller can integrate into any digital PA system and control all NAMs and DIOs via a simple GUI on mobiles, tablets and desktops. Additionally, it can be installed to work with all existing analogue PA systems giving them the same easy-to-use interface as the newest digital PA. Users can adjust volumes, select sources, mute and maintain the offsets between multiple speakers and zones. It is possible to have unlimited controllers and sources, up to 20 zones and up to 100 devices per controller.

The VCOM Virtual Server is highly scalable to thousands of users and supports virtually an unlimited number of point-to-points, group calls, and conference channels. It boasts AES-256 encryption, is fully redundant and an array of User Interfaces are available to meet specific communications requirements.

VCOM Statistics Server
The VCOM Statistics Server is a dedicated server that gathers data and analytics on the digital PA system for reporting purposes. It allows system users to understand how many announcements are being made as well as where and when.

Platform Connect (GPS location software)
This highly intuitive yet simple to operate system offers the latest technology which locates the GPS position of a device being used to access it and automatically connect to the correct zone to make an announcement.

Monitoring and Management

Primarily for larger scale installations, these systems have the impressive ability to monitor and control an entire network or facility from a single webpage. These systems are flexible and simple to operate yet robust enough to manage network monitoring and public address across vast areas.

digital PA monitoring and management systems work well for very large installations. They have the advantage for users of simplifying maintenance and operational management.

Help Points
Help Points offer commuters or other users the ability to contact the Network Operations Centre and talk with an operator or listen to automated information messages. The Help Point systems are totally configurable. Featuring VoIP integration to the PBX, CNMS and DVA, IP 65 water resistance, Power over Ethernet and a noise cancelling microphone; Help Points offer all the latest technology to communicate more effectively. Help Point systems also include Induction Loops for hearing assistance and the ability to customise housings.

IP PBX
